Our family LOVES Tocqueville!!! This restaurant is a must destination for us. The food is out of this world!! The angel hair pasta with uni, the duck, halibut, and lobster is all fantastic! It’s the way the chef transform these ingredients into something out of this world! The presentation is masterful!! The staff at the restaurant brings the dining experience to another level!! Tocqueville is one of our favorite restaurant. Number one in Manhattan!!!Dietary restrictions: I am allergic to shell fish and my daughter has nut allergies. We have no problem finding multiple selections to suit our needs.Parking: We took a cab from uptown so don’t know about parking.Kid-friendliness: I haven’t seen little kids there yet. Teenagers definitely.Wheelchair accessibility: Not an issue. Restaurant is on the ground level. Plenty of room.

Went there on Christmas. The serving size is a little bit small, which is like most French restaurants. The food was so good and the atmosphere is perfect for dating and private

loooved the ambiance (but the food wasn't as good as i expected it to be. the flavors were not super harmonious ie. would get two super rich savory dishes in a row) and the dessert was such a cool texture but too repetitive in flavor, design, and presentation -- repeated use of flowers, coconut, and passionfruit

This was the most quietest dining experience I've ever had in my life. You could probably hear a pin drop if it did. It was somewhat uncomfortable as we were very cautious of the volume while speaking. My group and I did the 7 course, and I would say it wasn't exactly satisfying. It was extremely heavy and I didn't feel too great after the meal. The mocktails were wonderful though!

Very rubbish, these people don't know how to cook at all.Point's five-courseThe steamed egg with foie gras was served cold;The halibut served after waiting for 25 minutes was actually cold;Only the duck was ok (the pears and apples on the same plate were awful)All the dishes are salty, sweet and bitter. If I had known that they advertised themselves as French, "AMERICAN" would not have come at all - American chefs would not be able to cook.

The food was good, great atmosphere, staff was friendly and attentive but SERVICE IS SLOW!!! It took 3 hours for 3 course meal . Waited maybe 1 hour to just get a menu. Will probably not come back but it’s a cute experience if you can spare the time.

15 East is one of the most popular fine dining restaurants on RED and we finally gave it a visit on our anniversary. The decor is brilliant and beautiful with intimate ambiance.Their portion was great, so 3-course was enough for us to enjoy our night. One of our favorites was the Cheese Bread from Amuse, the texture was soft and chewy with flavorful taste.Sea Urchin and Angel Hair Carbonara from our 1st course was extremely rich and creamy but not greasy at all. Their Duck Breast was one of my favorites recently and it was cooked properly, soft & tender.Our dessert was amazingly beautiful with delicate taste. This is their Costa Rican Cold Poached Pineapple.

This is place is a statement for class, romance and elegance. Did the coursed menu. Loved absolutely every single dish. Presentation and taste profile were on point. I added to my reservation that it was a romantic date and they went above and beyond to make our table full of candles and flowers. The Captain Miguel Vega tuck care of our visit. I manage at a 5 start Diamond award restaurant in Miami located in the heart of Brickell and this place deserves this award. To end the night with the perfect touch Miguel gifted us the flower arrangement from our table. 100/100 recommend it.
The interior is great, food was ok, the service ruined it all…The restaurant is ambitious and wants to be in the high-end category but the service is inconsistent and is far off:They give hand towel to our neighbor table but not give it to us.The server’s hair is all over the place.They served one dish before the previous one was finished… then they just run back immediately pretending like nothing happened.They serve dishes randomly without remember/asking which is which..Also see they serve the wrong dish to our neighbor table..We were prepared to give 15% tip but they charge 20% mandatory.. I mean a lot of good restaurants do that but their service was above and beyond.. the service here is definitely not deserves 20%.
